  • Publication number: 20240101287
    Abstract: A transport system for an unmanned aerial vehicle includes a control device that controls an unmanned aerial vehicle and a transport vehicle. The control device outputs a move command designating a destination of the unmanned aerial vehicle to both the transport vehicle and the unmanned aerial vehicle held by the transport vehicle. In response to receiving the move command, the transport vehicle travels to a corresponding stop position set on a travel route R in correspondence to the destination and stops at the corresponding stop position, and the unmanned aerial vehicle takes off from an aerial vehicle holding section and moves to the destination while the transport vehicle is stopped at the corresponding stop position.

  • Publication number: 20240076067
    Abstract: An operation system includes: a connecting cable; a winder configured to cause a tensile force to act on the connecting cable; a delivered amount detecting section configured to detect the delivered amount of the connecting cable; a direction detecting section configured to detect a direction of a force acting on a to-be-detected part of the connecting cable; and a position determination section configured to determine a position of an unmanned aircraft. The position determination section determines a distance from a predetermined reference position to the unmanned aircraft based on a detection result from the delivered amount detecting section. The position determination section determines an orientation of the unmanned aircraft on the basis of the to-be-detected part based on a detection result from the direction detecting section.
